Land Contracts in Michigan

The Denby family suffered a fire in Cadillac Michigan and requested help to determine if a land contract was as effective as purchasing through conventional means in replacement of the home they owned that was destroyed by fire.

Under Michigan law, a deed does not need to be recorded to be effective as between the parties to the deed. Evans v Holloway Sand & Gravel, Inc., 106 Mich App 70, 308 NW2d 440 (1981)

Claims Help for Fire and Water Victims in Northern Michigan

Help for fire and water claims victims in Norther Michigan will be easier with a possible branch office in the Gaylord or Grayling area this coming summer.  There has been a tremendous need for Public and Private Adjusters by insureds requesting estimates and help after their losses.  I would like to thank Dave Sears in Gaylord for helping James Davis who suffered a fire and was not insured outside of Grayling. Dave provided shelter and money to the family.

First Weekend of 2010

The New Year at Michigan Fire Claims started with a pretty busy week.  Having been retained on a party store fire in Flint, 2 homeowner fires in Detroit, a water loss in Troy, and a homeowner fire loss in Pontiac has kept our crew work hard in this frigid weather.  I would like to thank my team for braving the cold throughout the estimate process.
